This paper presents an effort to evaluate the generated digital elevation model (DEM) from an active sensor onboard satellite of Sentinel-1A and from aerial photos taken using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The objective is to compare the quality of generated DEM and review the processes for disa...

On August 5, 2018, Lombok Island, an island off the eastern part of Bali Island, Indonesia experienced a 6.9 magnitude earthquake. To provide a reliable measure to estimate the intensity of earthquake impact, this study observes land deformation after the event using Differential SAR (DinSAR) Interf...

This study was aimed at assessing afro-alpine and sub-afro-alpine biodiversity habitat loss and fragmentation of Gugu Mountain Ranges using geospatial techniques. Satellite imageries, key informants and field observation were the major sources of data. The land sat images of 1989, 2001 and 2019 were...

<p>Tropical thunderstorms cause significant damage to property and lives, and a strong research interest exists in the advances and improvement of thunderstorm predictability by satellite observations. Using high-resolution (2&thinsp;km and 10&thinsp;min) imagery from the geostationary satellite, Hi...

Abstract Background Greenbelt, known as the most restrictive form of urban containment policy, is a geographical boundary around a city or urban region to prevent urban sprawl. In the present study, the urban greenbelt plans were investigated with spatial, temporal, and statistical attitudes in Mash...

Coral reefs are one of the prominent marine ecosystems in the world. Coral reefs are facing threats from both natural and anthropogenic factors. Monitoring, protecting and studying these ecosystems are considered as a complex process because they are underwater features. Remote sensing can be quite...

Nowadays, the land use and land cover change and its impacts are revealing on different natural resource and man-made systems. This study attempted to examine the land use and land cover (LULC) dynamics on this using multi-spectral satellite imageries in Geographical Information System (GIS) in the...

This paper presents the effects of actions aiming at tree planting, and thus protection of the land belonging to Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) in Zaria (Nigeria) from erosion. This area is located within the northern limits of the Guinea savanna belt, which has been considerably transformed primaril...

The limited availability of high-resolution monitoring systems for the drought phenomena and water dynamics affected by weather anomalies hinders policy decisions in a multitude of ways. This paper introduces the availability of the high-resolution Water Monitoring System (WMS) developed from a mix...

The present study aimed to determine the impact of climate variability on rice crops in terms of sowing and harvesting dates and crop period. The identification of sowing and harvesting dates were spotted by mask identification, variations in land surface temperature (LST) on a temporal scale in the...

Natural ecosystems are highly affected by anthropogenic activities and environmental factors. The aim of this study was to detect land use/cover and vegetation decline in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, using Landsat different satellite imageries. For this purpose, images for 1993, 2009 and 2016...

This study analyzes a regional dust storm event that occurred in spring 2016 using data from observation sites, Lidar measurements, and satellite imageries. PM10 concentrations at surface observation stations are considered as a primary indicator of the dust events. The dust events occurred on 3-12...

Hydrologic element specifically precipitation was fathomed to contribute in land deformation of karst landscape. Cempaka Tropical Cyclone (TC) had ensued in the last of 2017 in the Indian Ocean implicated to a high rate of rainfall upon the karst landscape of Gunung Sewu. This research aimed to iden...

The dataset presents the historical railway network of Galicia and Austrian Silesia ��� two regions of the Habsburg Empire, covering more than 80 000 km2, currently divided among Czechia, Poland and Ukraine. The network covers the times of railway appearance and the most dynamic development of the 1...

The potential contribution of remote sensing and GIS techniques to earthquake hazard analysis was investigated in SW-Haiti in order to improve the systematic, standardized inventory of those areas that are more susceptible to earthquake ground motions or to earthquake related secondary effects such...

Remote sensing data analysis can provide thematic maps describing land-use and land-cover (LULC) in a short period. Using proper image classification method in an area, is important to overcome the possible limitations of satellite imageries for producing land-use and land-cover maps. In the present...

The study examined the spatial and temporal variation of land surface temperatures over a typical medium-size traditional settlement in southwestern Nigeria. Data were the multi-date satellite Landsat imageries (1991, 2002 and 2015) covering the area, as well as values of ambient air temperatures th...

The rate of global urbanization is exponentially increasing and reducing areas of natural vegetation. Remote sensing can determine spatiotemporal changes in vegetation and urban land cover. The aim of this work is to assess spatiotemporal variations of two vegetation indices (VI), the Normalized Dif...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential of aerial and satellite imageries of high spatial resolution for large scale vegetation mapping on Brittany, Normandy and Pays de la Loire regions at 1/25 000. Different types of images (BDORTHO® IRC, SPOT5, Worldview-2) were acquired for four s...
